1. [PA~CEMS] Pennsylvania Cemetery Laws [1]
Hello, I'm hoping someone one the list can help me regarding the laws in PA. What if someone sold a piece of land in abt. 1860 to the town for the purposes of a cemetery. (It was sold for $1.00) The land documents state specifically that it was for a public cemetery. There were numerous burials there but it appears that after a period they stopped the burials. Since then the farm surrounding it has kind of taken over. The stones were removed. From what I've gathered, the land still is owned by

Hello Lou, I found my detailed street map book of Chester County... sorry I was off by an exit or two. Route 10 is what you cross before you come to the beautiful winding road that takes you right across Octoraro Lake. The route that goes across Octoraro Lake is NOT Route 10 but Route 472, also called Lancaster Pike (in Lower Oxford in Chester County) but then called Kirkwood Pike (where it is shown on the map in Lancaster County). This ADC "Chester County, PA Street Map, 10th Edition" book (about $10)

9. [PA~CEMS] Mt. Moriah Cemetery [1]
Hi to everyone on the list, I have recently subscribed with a question that has been unable to be answered by any member of my family for the last 10 yrs. In 1944 one of my Ancestors had 8 graves removed from Mt. Moriah and had them reinterred in a common plot at Forest Hills. This must have been costly and no one has a clue why. Could someone on the list come up with a logical guess? Is this something that did happen in other Phila Cemeteries? Thanks for any assistance, Ed

12. [PA~CEMS] Greek Catholic Cemetery, Trauger, PA [1]
My greatgrandfather: Michael O. Furin was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire on or about October 21, 1870, and died June 26, 1926 in Greensburg, PA, and was buried at the Greek Catholic Church Cemetery in Trauger, PA. (The priest at that church will not look at his church records to assist.) The PA Death Certificate is very poor in quality and hard to read. I would absolutely love to obtain any cemetery or church record, which will surely provide clue to follow up on the family I've sought since 1961.

15. [PA~CEMS] ref:Salem Cemetery, Jacobus, York County, PA [1]
In reference to your email about Cemetary in Jacobus.....I live in York county........below is what I have on the churches in Jacobus....This is all that I show.....I think I had already replied to your email on the YORK COUNTY DIGEST site....as you posted a query there too. Best way to find the info...is to call the church and ask for assistance. If they have the person buried on the land, in most cases, if records are up to date and accurate, they can let u know the plot and even location they're at.
